Private Thoughts Made Public

…after a week off, and fortunately I wasn’t greeted by cries of “thank god you’re back! Can you fix this? Can you fix that?” Of course there were some things that didn’t go 100% smoothly in my absence, but they didn’t take long to sort out, and nothing stopped the maufacturing side of things. So all in all a rather good situation to be in – I’m still most definately needed, but they can survive a few days without me.
We interviewed for a new IT Manager a couple of weeks back, they’ve chosen a guy and he’s accepted the job. He starts three weeks today, so it will be interesting to see how he settles in, and it will also take some of the pressure off me to do absolutely everything IT-related around here!
The only downside of coming back to work is that it’s an absolutely gorgeous day out there, perfect for a bike ride. I’ll have to hope that it stays this nice until I get home, so that I can get a few miles in this evening.
